It is possible to jump a lawn mower with a car. It all depends on what kind of battery your lawn mower has. If your mower has a 6-volt battery it’s not safe to jump-start it with your car.
However, you can use your car to jump-start a 12-volt lawn mower battery. If you do try to jump your 12-volt lawn mower battery with your car, be sure to take these precautions:
Wear protective gloves and goggles in case any acid from the battery leaks
Don’t stand directly over the battery in case of sparks
Turn off your car’s engine before starting the lawn mower. Your vehicle’s battery may overload the lawn mower battery otherwise
in as little as 45 seconds when you compare rates.
